Photocrosslinking of Adventitial Collagen in the Porcine Abdominal Aorta: A Preliminary Approach to a Strategy for Prevention of Aneurysmal Rupture
This study was aimed at generating data for designing a potential method to prevent the rupture of the abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). We found that the mechanical strength and stiffness of blood vessel walls was enhanced by the crosslinking of adventitial collagen through a photochemical process p...
